07:49 AM EDT, 10/07/2026 (MT Newswires) -- The main US stock measures pointed lower in Wednesday's premarket activity as traders await minutes from the Federal Reserve's last policy meeting. The S&P 500 edged down 0.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.3%, and the Nasdaq 100 was off 0.4%.
